Robsport yet again!

[paul w]

Me and Rob arranged to meet John(215)today at our spiritual home.
I collected a spoiler i'd put my name on at Stoneleigh,Rob needed
some help with a droopy headlight...TR7's eh? Took John for a spin
in the Green Monster,when we got back Rob was talking to Simon
about this -

He very nearly bought it! I think he should tell you the rest!
Nice to meet you John,we should have another beer sometime soon.

See ya. Paul

Steve,now you know what those Minilites will look like!It is very
similar to your rally car.Has a 2.0l slant 4 and is very,very clean
allround.Simon has just bought it from a bloke in the Midlands,Rob took it for a test drive and was ssssooooo close to doing a deal!
The car is going to be advertised and will sell quickly.Lots of care has gone in to it,the interior is well done too.There is absolutely
no rust,spotless underneath,R reg.without sunroof!Hopefully John will
have more photo's to post later.

See ya. Paul
p.s.this car may well be on display at Ally Pally 23/24 Feb.if not sold by then.

[rob-d]

its a great fhc and at the time gave Simon the plastic card for payment, (he wanted cash)
think its best if someone else buys this great example of an early Tr7,[:(!] April the misses would have kick me out if i took two cars home in two weeks! so the car will be blue john

think i save for the V[8] playing wing man to Paul's green monster i need more power

Good to meet up with you John , so whats the estimated time for yours to join the convoy to robsports?

[john 215]

Hi,
A coulpe of pics of what must be one the cleanest FHC for sale. Last owner was the the guy who founded Cobra wheels as fitted to TR6's ect.







If you are after a FHC then this is worth a look and NO we are not on commision [;)]
Rob, MOT booked for Easter Saturday so will be on the road for April,fingers crossed.
Cheers john

Hi John really impressed any idea what price Simon is asking for the car?
Hi Paul were you not tempted just a little bit to take this one home? I know where you can get some good body armour to wear before you step indoors ha ha[:D]

regards Moe

[paul w]

Moe,lets just say that i did dribble thinking about it!
I won't say how much one of us could'a paid cash for it,but its on
www.robsport.co.uk for £4995.
Dont even think about sayin'ya know me to get a deal,coz he'll try
an' charge you the storage fer the Grinnall i been hiding there!!
That little project will be moving to a 'safe house' soon.

See ya. Paul

[moestr7v8]

Hi Paul could really go for it trouble is, is my bank manager a secret Tr admirer, probably not oh well perchance to dream and also dribble a bit as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!![;)]
Any idea what the black dhc auto is like that is at Robsport, how does your auto perform?
Regards Moe

[paul w]

The black auto needs a little tidying here an'there,but is sound.
My auto is a great lazy drive.After using all the gears in the low
loader all day,the auto's the perfect tonic.I had the head lightly
polished when skimmed and with Luminition it's quite lively.Can't
fit a sports exhaust tho'as the auto box leaves no room for the
modded manifold to pass bulkhead/trans tunnel.It's a 3 speed
Borg Warner 65,late cars had BW 66 4 speed.


See ya. Paul

[john 215]

Hi,
Hopefully some one on here will buy it, it WILL sell as it really is that clean,you could'nt restore a rough one without spending that money and as far we could see there is no rust or filler.Runs really smooth and well (as long as the choke is pushed in eh Rob [;)] ) If you turned up at a show in this car you would go home with some form of reward. As Paul said yesterday if was a Stag or dare i say a MGB it would be worth over £10k,cars like this dont come up that often, i am nearly talking myself into this one,resist i must resist [:D]
Cheers John.

[colonel bogey]

Certainly an awesome looking FHC,hope it's at Ally Pally next Sunday so i can see it in the flesh....Cool[8D]

Second that about not being able to fit a sports downpipe to an auto,was soo disapointed when i couldn't fit mine,went for a std stainless system from Robsport instead.
